7. Utatuzi wa shida

• Kifaa hakijibu:
  • Angalia kama usambazaji wa umeme unafanya kazi.
  • Ensure the device is properly wired.
  • If using a Vimar Gateway, confirm it has an active internet (CLOUD) connection, as loss of connection may prevent operation.
• Masuala ya Kuoanisha:
  • Ensure the actuator's LED is pulsing blue, indicating pairing mode.
  • Verify your smartphone or Zigbee hub is within range.
  • If re-associating, you may need to switch the device to Bluetooth mode via the Vimar Arké app, then back to Zigbee. If this fails, temporarily remove power from the actuator and restore it to attempt a reset before re-pairing.
